Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1607791A2] Thermal nonlinear cells for phase conjugation. In a transmissive cell (10), heat generated in a thermal nonlinear optical medium (14), is conducted via windows (16) of thermal conductive material, to peripheral heat sinks (18,19). In a reflective cell (20), a thick window (26) separates thermal nonlinear optical media (22,24), and heat generated in a medium (22,24), is conducted directly to the cooled mirror surface of a heat exchanger (28,30). The medium may be fluid.
